AMC Renews 'Better Call Saul,' 'Fear the Walking Dead' and 'McMafia'

During its presentation at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour, AMC handed out renewals to Better Call Saul (for a fifth season), Fear the Walking Dead (also for a fifth season) and McMafia (for a second season).

"In an environment where viewer choice is almost unlimited, the success of these shows is especially meaningful, with characters and stories that our viewers connect with and return to season after season," said David Madden, President of Originals, AMC. "It's a privilege to continue collaborating with and sharing the vision of the talented creatives behind these series, and we're excited to start exploring the next chapter in the lives of these unique and complex characters."

The renewal for Better Call Saul comes ahead of the fourth season premiere on Monday, August 6 - with the show being used to launch new drama Lodge 49.
